"For me, it has been a dream come true to work with Spyro Gyra," says Chowta, adding that while working on the track, there was "perfect synergy" between the band and himself, "The band loved the Indian touches in the song. It was a creative two-way process," says Chowta, who hit it big in Bollywood in the last decade, scoring music for movies like Mast (1999) and Pyaar Tune Kya Kiya (2001). Chowta is also upbeat about his second album, Matters Of The Heart, where he has worked with 45 artistes from around the globe.
